People get itchy scalps for all sorts of reasons. Whether your skin gets drier in the winter, you have dandruff, eczema or more, having an itchy scalp is no fun. To alleviate your scalp problems, try one of these DIY natural solutions and feel the relief.
Apple Cider Vinegar
Apple cider vinegar has many medicinal properties for your skin and inside your body, one of them being anti-fungal and anti-inflammatory properties. Use it after you shampoo your hair to relieve your symptoms. Mix it with warm water, rub it in, and rinse it out. It also locks in the moisture in your hair so you also will not need to use conditioner, so it’s a win-win!
Peppermint Oil
Peppermint essential oil is a strong essential oil that has soothing properties if first diluted and applied to the skin. In order for it to work best, dilute it into another type of oil like olive oil or melted coconut oil. Coconut oil has it’s own properties that make it great for an itchy scalp, so you might want to consider using that. Rub it onto your scalp either before or after you wash your hair and your scalp will feel good as new.
